    If you've been having issues with #Overwatch2, you'll need the Activision Blizzard Download Launcher to properly patch it. Google "Overwatch ABDL" to learn more.

  • hailszs hails (@hailszs) reported

  • Franpanchiro Frannie Soprano (@Franpanchiro) reported

    I'm starting to believe some of my overwatch 2 teammates have severe cognitive problems because holy ****.

  • ShammyTV Whisper Transgender Flag on Apple iOS 15.4🔞 (@ShammyTV) reported

    @Turbou97 i talked in my overwatch/paladins video that blizzard's balance problems are not solvable without instituting some kind of hero "ban" phase in matches, there is ALWAYS one dominant comp no matter what that you essentially HAVE to run. and no, i won't explain the other stuff.

  • iunarihs_ bee 🐝 (@iunarihs_) reported

    is anyone else still having issues with overwatch 2’s tracking stats??? i had over 300 hours in ovw1 but now i just have 49 hours and it’s been like that since launch. and hours of characters that i’ve never touched once in my life 😭

  • elliecuvt kil (@elliecuvt) reported

    @imzohi_ I’ve been solo queueing n had no problems I was barely gold in overwatch 1 n now I just hit plat four on ow2 I prefer this system tbh. It’s all abt performance

  • mhmdsairory Cheetah (@mhmdsairory) reported

    Who would've thought that the hero that would make me reconsider overwatch is mercy. get cancer jeff kaplen you cant fix **** and you're retarded

  • mikutweets4ever MikuXLegend (@mikutweets4ever) reported

    alright i've now added the "saturday may be updated here if problems occur" because i don't get saturdays recorded on sundays normally i wait till friday nights to do them and that's what happened with overwatch 2 it didn't have a warning until very recent so now i've decided....

  • RedezOfTheVoid Redez (@RedezOfTheVoid) reported

    @Rovient Overwatch’s main shop has more problems but the battle pass is actually quite consumer friendly offering a skin that is customisable at the end. And multiple cosmetics throughout. Why can’t chromas be tied into the normal path of the battle pass like these other games

  • imlegenbarry Legenbarry (@imlegenbarry) reported

    waiting until 2023 for Overwatch' PVE is crazy to me. I know blizzard is a small indie company that need to take characters out of the game for days to fix them but damn

  • sam10308118 sam (@sam10308118) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Hey guys for some reason my account is not tracking my overwatch comp matches and has me stuck in bronze 5. Please fix asap. -samboni

  • zexy_zex_ Zex 🦖 (@zexy_zex_) reported

    Seeing that I'm sick and not working today I guess its overwatch day for me

  • mercyhealsyou Tim Kaneki (@mercyhealsyou) reported

    @PlayOverwatch So your game kicked me out of a ranked Match because your servers still suck and I get suspended for you guys not being able to fix Overwatch 1.5?

  • knights_stormy StormyKnights (Tales of Your Mom) (@knights_stormy) reported

    Honestly I don't really have a problem with the battle pass in Overwatch 2, my problem is the over priced as **** skins

  • SteamDeckHQ SteamDeckHQ (@SteamDeckHQ) reported

    @dudebono I’m not sure if the Overwatch 2 and Diablo 2 issues were the same. If so, then it is possible.

  • LASTWlSH maris (@LASTWlSH) reported

    @BlizzardCSEU_EN overwatch crashes for me every time i navigate to the history tab from my profile if I haven't played any games yet please fix it

  • dynam0e dyna!!🎗🎧 (@dynam0e) reported

  • haynes_uno Haynes (@haynes_uno) reported

  • mhmdsairory Cheetah (@mhmdsairory) reported

    im gonna say it once. Mercy is the most broken charecter in overwatch right now.

  • Adi89736381 Adi (@Adi89736381) reported

    @cybuuorg But didn't Overwatch set the omnics free too? As far as I remember they were mind controlled at first... they didn't attack humans of their own free will. The problem was that humans couldn't accept the freed omnics after the war and kept trying to destroy them...

  • Hexrov Hexrov (@Hexrov) reported

    @SwampyWampy Overwatch is also fun if you don’t wanna spend 70 bucks on a cod. It’s fun, but it’s still a bit buggy. Next update should fix it

  • Ray_cat77 R Ay (@Ray_cat77) reported

    @BlizzardCS after I connected my battlenet account with my ps4 all my overwatch 2 cosmetics are gone and it won’t let me merge this problem has been going on for more than 2 weeks and my issue isn’t fixed please help me asap

  • Pixelotta_ pixel⭐️🎗||comms open! (@Pixelotta_) reported

    trying to play overwatch 2 the lag is literally trying to end me

  • _Orgalian_ Justus (@_Orgalian_) reported

    @ShammyTV This issue really only effects the very top 0.1% of the overwatch player base, whilst there are cases where certain heroes are clearly OP at most levels, such as sombra and soujurn, whole team comps like this only matters to OWL and the top of grandmaster

  • LordOfTheMemesY LordOfTheMemes (@LordOfTheMemesY) reported

    @HaiderM35898355 @OWL_moment She was mega broken on release. Basically outhealed in 1v1 against a Rein, her stun on her shield bash was a huge enabler and her Ult gave everyone armor, which was mega broken as well. Generally the most OP Hero State ever in Overwatch and the reason why Role queue was made

  • gravygaming3 sunkencandy (@gravygaming3) reported

    @PlayOverwatch Maybe before you add new things you should make it so everyone can play, it's been over a month since overwatch2 dropped and I'm still get the lc-208 issue, with no news from overwatch about if there will be a fix I'm getting ready to just give up on this game

  • sad80svidvixen 💘 mimi (@sad80svidvixen) reported

    Apex will die out and lose players before it’s ever fixed, the amount of bugs and glitches are insane, not to mention the server issues, @Respawn should fix their ****. overwatch has so much variation & better mechanics w less bugs sometimes, I might just migrate tbf

  • WackedKittens Some Hostility (@WackedKittens) reported

    @BlizzardCS Hi, I am still missing random Overwatch 1 Skins in Overwatch 2. I Had everything unlocked, and they’re just gone. What is the plan? It’s been over a month, I’d really like to know if I’m expected to buy things I actually already went through the trouble of earning?

  • DevonIsFrosTy FrosTy (@DevonIsFrosTy) reported

    @Dexycc might not have been cheating. theres a glitch with the overwatch helo and vtol that if u use the riot shield and block the damage when it tries to kill you, you get god mode and cant die
